Designing and Building My Own "Earthroamer", a story. (with photos)

Indeed!

For some reason it sounded like you are just building this for yourself, not starting a business.

Sounded the same to me but I just saw this article.

Ever Overland Introduces the Ever Expedition Shell - Expedition Portal

Ever Overland has launched the Ever Expedition Shell, a composite shell and subframe for the Ford F-550, built for pros and serious DIY overland builders.

Then noticed I missed this.

"Ever Overland" one and the same? Link

Both are true. I wanted to build a 550 expedition vehicle and the only way to justify the up front cost of moulds was to make shells available to other up-fitters and DIY adventure enthusiasts. My post shows my personal build.

Can you order a shell with different parameters such as a larger cargo door or windows in different locations?

 

[mwtownsend]

The shells come without any cutouts aside from the entry door and fixed skylight - those are generally handled by the person / company doing the finish out. The cargo doors aft of the rear axle are set but all other cutouts (aside from the entry door and fixed skylight) are handled by the company doing the inside finish out. Hope that helps!
